- My poem -
In the small body that I own
I have so much pain that I wish to dis-own
I walk around all day long
Acting as if I didn’t cry all night long
I keep my pain and sorrow to myself
Cause I wish for no one to worry about my dumb self
I sit and think about how i could ask for help.
But I’m afraid that people will think I need more than my own help,
I sit and listen to everyone’s pain and sorrow
And act as if I don’t have any of my own
I laugh and joke about the things I go through
But I know that these aren’t normal for a small body to go through.
Behind these eyes, And this bright smile
Is a young boy that wishes to just seek some help and make the pain smile turn to a happy smile.
